"The Ultimate Fighter: Nations" Finale this April has added a featherweight matchup, as the UFC revealed on Friday that Dustin Poirier will take on Akira Corassani on the card.
Poirier will try to make it three wins in a row after an impressive stoppage of Diego Brandao in December. That followed up a decision win over Erik Koch in August at UFC 164.
Corassani enters on what is technically a three-fight winning streak, though his most recent victory came by disqualification when Maximo Blanco blasted him with an illegal knee.
The "TUF: Nations" Finale takes place on April 16 from Quebec City, airing live on Fox Sports 1 with a main event fight between Michael Bisping and Tim Kennedy.
